EPM was in snowy Denver for the annual ACEP convention and Mark spoke with a variety of friends, peers and innovators at this year's event.

Tune in for his first round of interviews including EPM's own Judith Tintinalli and Greg Henry; Rick Bukata and Andrew Phillips of EM Coach.

This is just the first of a series of ACEP interviews and features so stay tuned.

Join Mark Plaster as he provides a double dose of stories from his acclaimed Night Shift book.

Some medical histories are hard to listen to with a straight face. Especially when they involve a bat winding up in a woman's bedroom.

An Easy Decision: A little experience can make the easiest decision agonizing. No one appreciates what’s going on inside the doctor’s head.

If you enjoyed Mark and Bill’s last discussion of emergency physician career options, don’t miss this next installment where they go at it from another angle.  

These could be the most rewarding discussions of your professional career.

Are you working in the ideal job for YOU? What is the ideal job?

Join Mark Plaster and Bill Sullivan for a lively discussion of an evaluation of the vast array of career options for today’s emergency physicians.

You might find that your dream job still awaits you.

Have you ever been bitten by a dog? I’ll bet you don’t reach down to pet a stray anymore. Well there are lots of things in emergency medicine that we have to do that dredge up old bad memories. What are those things for you? Well for me…I can’t even say it.

Most of us have worked for bad ED directors from time to time.  But I got to work for Mike Silverman when he was a relatively new director.  And from the start I knew that Mike Silverman was special. 

And while leading a groups of emergency physicians can be like herding a bunch of ornery cats, it was clear that "he got leadership.”

That’s why he has a permanent spot on the front page of Emergency Physicians Monthly.  Join me on EPM Talk to meet Mike and pick up a few pearls on leadership in the ED, whether you are an ED Director, active or aspiring.  Or whether you are a staff physician and you just need a solid answer to some of the ED’s thorniest questions.

Listen in as I interview the author of Director’s Corner.

Informatics is on the leading edge of emergency medicine. And Nick Genes is on the leading edge of emergency medicine informatics.

Nick was seeing and preparing for the world of EM informatics when most of us were still trying to decide if social media was going be a real thing or not.

Unlike many info-geeks, Nick is able to make EM informatics understandable and interesting to the everyday emergency physician.

Join me on EPM Talk to get to know Nick and hear what he thinks is going to be the next big thing in EM informatics.
